Does anyone know where this is at? I thought WhatsApp were being forced by the EU in 2024 to introduce this under the Digital Markets App? I’m googling, but am finding very little info.
It would be great if we could use Signal to communicate with WhatsApp groups. The sooner I can delete WhatsApp the better.
As long as you have a way to know if it’s a Signal to whatsapp conversation, I don’t see the problem.
If you only want to talk to Signal users, you could just deactivate the interooerability option.
It’s incredible that everybody was fine with SMS in Signal behaving this way, which is vastly less secure.
I wasn’t. Like a WhatsApp integration, I think using SMS defeats the purpose of Signal. My phone can handle SMS just fine, I don’t need that feature. But when you take a feature away, you only hear about people who used and liked it to there’s a clear bias to think there was a huge backlash.
I haven’t seen numbers to support the alleged “mass exodus” that happened when they removed it.
